'Mulan' Live-Action Movie Gets Re-Scripted; Meet All-Chinese Cast Soon

Reports about the new "Mulan" live-action movie has sent the internet into a frenzy. The movie was previously in hot water after rumors started to spread that it will be another bad case of Hollywood's white washing.

After several reports claiming that the "Mulan" live-action movie could have Caucasian leads, sources close to the film have recently addressed rumors by saying that they are already in the process of casting Chinese actors for the movie.

It was previously reported that "The Hunger Games" star Jennifer Lawrence will headline the "Mulan" live-action movie alongside Zac Efron as her love interest. Rumors also angered fans when an open letter claimed that movie execs are looking at changing Mulan's love interest to a European businessman who will end up the hero of the movie.

Just Jared recently released a report that has somehow appeased worried fans. The publication claimed that the "Mulan" live-action movie has a rewritten script that features an all Chinese cast.

Meanwhile, Movie Pilot has previously offered some viable candidates for the lead role in the "Mulan" live-action movie. Some of the more popular choices include Chinese actresses Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing. Chinese-American Malese Jow and Japanese actress and "Pacific Rim" star Rinko Kikuchi are also top contenders, but perhaps the favorite among fans remains to be "Once Upon a Time" star Jamie Chung.

The "Mulan" live-action movie is currently in its early stages. To start the ball rolling, reports have confirmed that the film finally has a director in "Game of Thrones" main director Alex Graves, Variety noted. Fans should definitely stay tuned for more updates about the new movie.
